Romantic Road Trips in New England for Couples Who Hate Crowds
There is a moment right after you cross the state line into Vermont when the air smells like a person just recently opened a jar of cinnamon and poured it over the trees. My girlfriend Jenna and I felt it the second we rolled the windows down, and we both laughed because we knew the next five days were going to be all ours. No bosses, no group chats, no scrolling through other peoples highlight reels. Just two slightly dusty sneakers on the dashboard and a half tank of gas between us and whatever small miracle waited around the next bend. We have done this loop three years running, and every time the road throws us a brand new color or a diner that still hand whips cream like it matters. If you want the kind of getaway that feels like the opening glance of a movie you actually want to live in, follow the two lane roads north and let New England do the rest.
